Instructions

Heat an oven to 400 degrees. Set the superhot chili peppers and garlic on a baking sheet and bake them about 15-20 minutes, or until the skins slightly char. Keep an eye on these. You don't want them to burn, and watch out for any fumes. Alternatively, do this on your grill outside.
Add peppers to a food processor. Squeeze garlic out of their skins and into the food processor they go.
Add basil leaves and process.
While processing, add in vinegar until it is nicely pureed. Watch out for the fumes!
Add salt and stir. Push the sauce through a strainer or use a food mill to really strain it, if desired. Adjust with more vinegar or water to your desired consistency.
Pour into bottles and enjoy. Give to your friends! The longer you let it sit, the more the flavors will meld.
